even at the last viper event that i went to, the "stock viper" class had guys running in the 13s, with srt10s. the mod viper class was a bit more impressive, but there were still some "dress pant racers" there muddling their way down the track in the 12s with bottled, blown vipers...

12.60s @ 125mph FTW!!!

That's a bit alarming to read about drivers driving 500 hp cars into the 13s. My only guess is that they spin off the line really bad, but at least it looks cool when they do it.
You could put full t/c on and granny shift and be able to run a 12.9x in a C6Z06. Maybe if you miss a gear....or 3.....

I'd have to agree there.. In the immortal words of Clint Eastwood, "Whoever did this to a car like that ought to have his *** removed..." LOL

LOLOLOLOL @ anyone saying the SS--even at 850hp--will go 9s stock.


You really think it will trap ~150mph bone stock out of the factory? Even on a drag radial, that's what it will have to do to run faster than the fastest Liter-bikes on the road in the 1/4.

With basic suspension and some full-blown slicks, maybe...but not a chance off the showroom.
